Fritz Kreisler. Fritz Kreisler, universally the ac- claimed master of the violin, just as Paderewski {s the master of the piano, played to house overflowing with people eager to hear the grat Aus- trian in his first concert here this season. This was one of the high spots. in the concert season. The crowds which filled Poli's with en- thusiastic applause after each number, | would riot leave the theater until Mr. Kreisler had played ‘four enchores following the conclusion of his print- cd program. The mature poise and impersonal attitude of the master ‘o:lrd this great ovation in honor + of his genius only added in endear- * ing him to his host of admorers. The first number on the program was Grieg's last and best sonata for the violin, the “Sonata in C Mi- nor.” The first movement, allegro molto_appassionato, was faultlessly played, but the second movement, al- Jegretto alla romanza, with its piz- zicatto notes, was more replete \!'H'h loring of the great Norwegian's usic that has become so familiar to American audiences through his pop- ular Peer Gynt suites. The third movement, ailegro animato, was in distinctly ‘Kreislerian style ‘and per- haps the most popular of the three. The second number, Max Bruch's “Concerto in G Minor,” also was given in a manner that left the most erit- ical in a state of utter enthusiasm. Trobably the most popular of the 1hree movements of this concerto was the final movement, allegro energico. ‘The audience did not allow Mr. Kreis- ler to continue his program until he ave his own arrangement of “La ana,” which he uses in his light opera,” “Apple Blossoms.” The’ third and final _group opened with Cyril Seott's “Lotus Land.” which was deftly interpreted on the piano by Mme. Samaroff just last week. All who heard the piano ver- sion and then heard Kreisler felt 1hat the violin was more the ideal of yihe two instruments for playing this composition and securing all the noignancy of the oriental motif and the delicate pattern of music woven about it. “Lotus Land” was, how- ever, originally written for the piano. Then came Kreisler's own compo- sition, “Polichinelle,” a seranade ver- sion of this popular theme. Any one Who heard this melody anywhere - Who had ever heard the composer play. would know it to be Ris compo- sition. Tt has all the d.nfi‘y. whim- Jisality that is tvpleally Kreislerian. Yas €0 popular that 3 re'gouod %t D! Mr. Krgisler is arrangement of “Farewell to Cuchullan.” the old Londonderey aie of Ireland, followe giving note of pathos. Paderewski's lovely “Min- ust” followed. Kreisler's violin ver- sion closely follows Paderewski's own piano interpretation of the color- ' ing of the “Minuet” and was one of the most delightful things on the en- tire program. The 1ast two numbers were Rimsky- Korsakoff's “Chanson Arabe’ and “Dance Orientale.” When one con- siders that it was Kreisler's playing of this Russian composer’s “Chanson Indoue” which really created the great vogue for'that song that exists today, it is unnccessary. to add how perfectly he played these two num- hers, both of which are unusually &t- tractive. Mr. Kreisler then proved his genial- ity by responding to the thunderous applause of his glowing audience and played four of the compositions “that are inevitably linked with his name. They were the “Serenade Es- pagnole” ( Schaminade - Kreisler), “Viennese Melody” (Gaertner-Kreis- ler), “The Old Refrain” (Kreisler), and “Ballet Music from Rosamunde (8chubert-Kreisler). The ovation still continued, but the master was . too exhausted to do more than how " again end’ again fu_acknowledg- ment of this appreciation. The Chicago &rand Opera Company opened in n‘o-(nn this week its tour of eastern cities. which will bring this famous organization to Washing- ton for three performances, February 5. 6 and 7. at Poli's Theater, under the local management of Mrs. Wilson- Greene. Verdi's “Aida” will be pre- sented Monday evening, February with Rosa Raisa in the title role; th opera will be sung in Italia Th second performance, Tuesday .

NATIONAL—William Gillette in “Sherlock Holmes.” William Gillette, in that first of all plays of thrills and mysteries, his own “Sherlock Holmes,” is to be seen at the National Theater next weel beginning Monday cvening. The d tective classic, familiar to theate: goers here and in England, was wri ten by Mr. Gillette around the a ventures of the famous Conan Doyl - character, these adventures of grip ping suspense and interest being o Mr, Gillette's own contrivance and not based on any particular story irom Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

Much of the wealth of melody of which Schubert was master is poured in good measure into this beautiful score. The dignity, tenderness and musical eloquence of the great com- poser are mgnifest in a pretty story, in which he expresses love, despair and joy_through the language of music. There are haunting measures of *Unfinished Symphony” recurri throughout the e nad song of love are all embodied in this jewel of a musical play. PRESIDENT—‘Abie’s Irish Rose.’ ; (Tenth Week).
